Cast on a super-quick cardigan that’ll give you a cosy winter glow from morning until night.

Golden Hour Cardigan is a long, easy-to-wear layer worked from the bottom up with almost no seaming. Super bulky yarn makes it a fast and satisfying knit, while wide bands of
garter and stockinette create a simple texture inspired by the warm, shifting light at the end of the day.

CONSTRUCTION:
The cardigan is knitted from the bottom up. Stitches are cast on for both fronts and the back, which are worked seamlessly. The shoulders are joined using a three-needle bind off. Stitches are then picked up for the sleeves, which are worked in the round. Finally, stitches are picked up for the collar, which is worked flat.

SIZES:
This relaxed fit cardigan is available in 7 sizes from 71cm/28 inch chest through to 152cm/60 inch chest. Shoulder to hip is between 64 and 69cm (25-27 inches), it is designed to be worn with approximately 10cm/4 inches of ease around the bust.

Chest circumference:
71/86/91/107/122/137/152 cm
28/34/36/42/48/54/60 inches

SKILLS:
This has been designed as an easy pattern for beginners, so uses basic skills including knitting in the round, simple decreases such as ssk/k2tog and introduces the newer knitter to Three Needle Bind Off.
